A guy pan-fries dozens of dumplings in this wok-like pan, sprinkling in various things like water, oil and sesame seeds throughout the process.

Finally after 15 minutes wait, hot, steaming bun filled with a juicy soup-filled porky bun is ready.

I turned one of the bun around. Wow the fried wok seared bottom is delicious! Crispy and savoury.

Look at soup around the centred porky filling bun. Its hot and mouth watering.
